1)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

    The accounting policies as set forth in SBS Technologies, Inc.'s (the
    "Company") Annual Report on Form 10-K dated September 26, 1997 have been
    adhered to in preparing the accompanying interim consolidated financial
    statements.  These statements are unaudited but include all adjustments,
    consisting of normal recurring adjustments, that the Company considers
    necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such interim period. 
    Results for an interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for
    a full year.

    Certain amounts in the September 30, 1996 financial statements have been
    reclassified to conform with the September 30, 1997 presentation.

2)  RECEIVABLES, NET

    Receivables, net consisted of the following:

                                         September 30, 1997     June 30, 1997

    Contract receivables:
       Amounts billed                             267,469           268,913
       Recoverable costs and accrued profit
         on progress completed- not billed        241,337           242,416
                                               ----------         ---------
                                                  508,806           511,329

                                                9,872,214         9,545,264
                                               ----------         ---------

    Less:  allowance for doubtful accounts       (418,718)         (300,995)
                                               ----------         ---------
                                               $9,453,496         9,244,269
                                               ----------         ---------
                                               ----------         ---------
     
    Recoverable costs and accrued profit not billed are comprised principally
    of amounts of revenue recognized on contracts for which billings had not
    been presented to the contract owners since the amounts were not billable
    at the balance sheet date, because progress billings are restricted by the
    contract to a percentage of costs incurred until the contracts are closed.

3)  INVENTORIES

    Inventories are valued at average cost which does not exceed market.

4)  EARNINGS PER COMMON AND COMMON EQUIVALENT SHARE

    Earnings per common and common equivalent share are based on the weighted

    (options and warrants) outstanding during the period.

    The number of shares used in the earnings per share computations are as
    follows:

5)  BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

    On November 18, 1996, the Company completed the purchase of Bit 3 Computer
    Corporation ("Bit 3"), a Minneapolis-based manufacturer of computer
    networking and interconnection hardware.  The Company acquired all the
    outstanding capital stock of Bit 3 for a total purchase price of $24.0
    million.  Of this purchase price, $20.0 million was paid to the sellers in
    cash upon closing of the public stock offering.  Of the balance of $4.0
    million, $1.0 million was paid on July 1, 1997 and the balance of $3.0
    million will be paid on July 1, 1998. The financial results of Bit 3 have
    been included in the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements from
    November 18, 1996.  In connection with the acquisition of Bit 3, the
    Company recorded an $11.0 million earnings charge in the quarter ended
    December 31, 1996, based on an assessment by the Company, in conjunction
    with an independent valuation firm, of purchased technology of Bit 3.  The
    assessment determined that $11.0 million of Bit 3's purchase price
    represented technology that does not meet the accounting definitions of
    "completed technology," and thus should be charged to earnings under
    generally accepted accounting principles.  In addition, as a result of the
    acquisition, the Company recorded $10.0 million of goodwill which is being
    amortized over a ten year period. 

    Had the acquisition taken place on July 1, 1996, revenues, net loss and net
    loss per common and common equivalent share for the quarter ended September
    30, 1996 would have been approximately $15.1 million, $(4.3) million, and
    $(.88), respectively. The proforma information is presented for

                 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF CONSOLIDATED
                    FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                  SEPTEMBER 30, 1997
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE
COMPANY'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND NOTES THERETO.  INFORMATION DISCUSSED HEREIN
MAY INCLUDE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS REGARDING FUTURE EVENTS OR THE FUTURE
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE OF THE COMPANY, AND ARE SUBJECT TO A NUMBER OF RISKS AND
OTHER FACTORS WHICH COULD CAUSE THE ACTUAL RESULTS TO DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM
THOSE CONTAINED IN ANY FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS.  AMONG SUCH FACTORS ARE:
GENERAL BUSINESS AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS; CUSTOMER ACCEPTANCE OF AND DEMAND FOR
THE COMPANY'S PRODUCTS; THE COMPANY'S OVERALL ABILITY TO DESIGN, TEST, AND
INTRODUCE NEW PRODUCTS ON A TIMELY BASIS; THE NATURE OF THE MARKETS ADDRESSED BY
THE COMPANY'S PRODUCTS; AND OTHER RISK FACTORS LISTED FROM TIME TO TIME IN
DOCUMENTS FILED BY THE COMPANY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION.

PUBLIC STOCK OFFERING

On November 18, 1996, the Company consummated a fully underwritten public stock
offering of 1,500,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock at a price of
$25.625 per share.  In addition, certain selling shareholders sold an additional
300,000 shares in the offering.  The proceeds of the sale of the 300,000
additional shares did not benefit the Company; however, the Company did receive
the exercise price of $4.80 per share from the exercise of warrants covering
100,000 of the shares.  The offering was managed by an underwriting group led by
Cowen & Co. and SoundView Financial Group, Inc.  The net proceeds to the Company
of the public stock offering were used to fund the acquisition of  Bit 3 (see
Recent Acquisition below), to repay long-term debt, and the balance will be used
for general working capital requirements.  

RECENT ACQUISITION

On November 18, 1996, the Company completed the purchase of Bit 3.  Bit 3 is a
Minneapolis-based manufacturer of computer networking and interconnection
hardware for many of the most widely used computer architecture standards in the
standard bus embedded computer market.  Under the terms of the purchase
agreement dated October 8, 1996 (the "Acquisition Agreement") among the Company
and the two shareholders of Bit 3 (the "Sellers"), the Company acquired all of
the outstanding capital stock of Bit 3 for a total purchase price of $24.0
million paid or to be paid from proceeds from the public stock offering and cash
flow from the Company's operations.  Of this total purchase price, $20.0 million
was paid to the sellers in cash upon the closing of the offering.  Of the
balance of $4.0 million, $1.0 million was paid to the Sellers on July 1, 1997
and $3.0 million will be paid to the sellers on July 1, 1998, pursuant to
secured promissory notes according to the terms of the Acquisition Agreement. 
The financial results of Bit 3 have been included in the Company's Consolidated
Financial Statements from November 18, 1996.  In connection with the acquisition
of Bit 3, the Company recorded an $11.0 million earnings charge in the quarter
ended December 31, 1996, based on an assessment by the Company, in conjunction
with an independent valuation firm, of purchased technology of Bit 3.  The
assessment determined that $11.0 million of Bit 3's purchase price represented
technology that does not meet the accounting definitions of "completed
technology," and thus should be charged to earnings under generally accepted
accounting principles.  In addition, as a result of the acquisition, the Company
recorded $10.0 million of goodwill which is being amortized over a ten year
period.

                 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF CONSOLIDATED
                    FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                  SEPTEMBER 30, 1997
                                     (Continued)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                                           
Had the acquisition taken place on July 1, 1996, revenues, net loss and net loss
per common and common equivalent share for the quarter ended September 30, 1996
would have been approximately $15.1 million, $(4.3) million, and $(.88),
respectively.  The proforma information is presented for informational purposes
only and is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that
actually would have been achieved had the acquisition been consummated as of
that time, nor is it intended to be a projection of future results.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

SALES.   For the three month period ended September 30, 1997, sales increased
45.3%, or $5.1 million,  from $11.3 million for the three month period ended
September 30, 1996, to $16.4 million.  Of this 45.3% increase, sales contributed
by Bit 3, which was acquired on November 18, 1996, comprised 34.0% of this
increase, and 14.3% of this increase was attributable to the Company's other
product lines, offset by 3.0% due to the sale of the Company's Judgmental Use of
Force business on June 26, 1997.  During the three month period ended September
30, 1997, prices for the Company's products remained firm and unit shipments
increased in all product lines, with the exception of the Company's CPU product
line which was consistent with the first quarter of fiscal 1997.

GROSS PROFIT.  For the three month period ended September 30, 1997, gross profit
increased 55.6%, or $3.3 million, from $6.0 million for the three month period
ended September 30, 1996, to $9.3 million, due to the effect of the higher sales
volume and the acquisition of Bit 3.  For the three month period ended September
30, 1997, gross profit as a percentage of sales increased to 57.2% from 53.4%
for three month period ended September 30, 1996, resulting from the acquisition
of Bit 3, a favorable sales mix, increased sales volume over fixed costs,
material cost improvements, a reduction in commissionable sales due to the
movement from an independent sales force to a direct sales force, and the sale
of our low margin Judgmental Use of Force business.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATION EXPENSE.   For the three month period ended
September 30, 1997, selling, general and administration (SG&A) expense increased
29.3%, or $783,000, from $2.7 million, for the three month period ended
September 30, 1996, to $3.5 million, resulting primarily from the acquisition of
Bit 3, additional salaried sales personnel, as well as other additional staffing
and promotional costs.  For the three month period ended September 30, 1997,
SG&A expense as a percentage of sales decreased to 21.1%, from 23.7% in the
three month period ended September 30, 1996, as increased sales volume more than
offset the increase in actual expenditures.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSE.   For the three month period ended September
30, 1997, research and development expense (R&D) increased 172.2%, or $1.1
million,  from $655,000  for the three month period ended September 30, 1996 to
$1.8 million, largely because of the added expenditures resulting from the
Company's acquisition of Bit 3 as well as increases in expenditures in the
Company's other product areas as the Company continued to invest in new
products. For the same reason, for the three month period ended September 30,
1997, R&D expense as a percentage of sales increased to 10.9%, from 5.8% in the
three month period ended September 30, 1996.

AMORTIZATION OF INTANGIBLE ASSETS.  For the three month period ended September
30, 1997, amortization of intangible assets increased 105.0%, or $230,000 from
$219,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 1996, to $450,000.  This
increase was  the result of the amortization of goodwill associated with the
acquisition of Bit 3.

                    FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                                     (Continued)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

INTEREST INCOME.   For the three month period ended September 30, 1997, interest
income increased $270,000 from $15,000, for the three month period ended
September 30, 1996, to $285,000.  This increase is due to earnings on surplus
cash from operations as well as earnings on cash received, above the Company's
immediate requirements, from the public stock offering consummated on November
18, 1996.  
                                           
INTEREST EXPENSE.  For the three month period ended September 30, 1997, interest
expense decreased 71.6%, or $117,000, from $164,000 for the three month period
ended September 30, 1996, to $47,000.  This decrease is attributable to the
reduction of debt incurred primarily to finance the acquisition of GreenSpring
Computers, Inc. in April 1995, and the elimination of all bank debt, effective
November 22, 1996, by application of some of the proceeds of the public stock
offering.  The $47,000 of interest expense for the quarter ended September 30,
1997 represents imputed interest associated with the remaining notes payable to
the former owners of Bit 3.
                                           
INCOME TAXES.   For the three month period ended September 30, 1997 and the
three month period ended September 30, 1996, income taxes represent an effective
income tax rate of 40.5% and 40.0%, respectively.  The increase in the effective
income tax rate is primarily due to an increase in the federal tax rate
associated with an increase in the Company's estimated taxable income.
                                            
                                           
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
                                           
The Company uses a combination of the sale of equity securities, internally
generated funds, and bank borrowings to finance its acquisitions, working
capital requirements, capital expenses, and operations.  
                                           
Cash totaled $22.5 million at September 30, 1997, an increase of $860,000 from
June 30, 1997.  This increase is a result of cash flow provided by operations of
$2.0 million, offset by purchases of property and equipment of $762,000 and
payments to the former owners of Bit 3, in conjunction with the acquisition, of
$1.0 million.  Additionally, $565,000 was received from exercise of stock
options and warrants.   Increases in sales volume and demand for semiconductor
parts during the three month period ended September 30, 1997 caused the Company
to increase accounts receivable and inventories.  Liabilities were in line with
the current level of business.  
                                           
On April 26, 1996 and November 15, 1996, the Company amended its bank financing
agreement with NationsBank of Texas, N.A. ("NationsBank"), originally entered
into in April 1995, to provide the Company with a $6.8 million term loan and a
$2.5 million revolving line of credit.  The term loan was completely paid down
in November, 1996 with a portion of the proceeds from the public stock offering.
For the entire three month period ended September 30,  1997,  there were no
borrowings drawn on the revolving line of credit.  At September 30, 1997, the
Company was in compliance with all of the covenants of the amended financing
agreement.  The revolving line of credit expired on October 30, 1997. 
Management is currently negotiating a renewal of this facility. 
                                           
Management believes that financial resources, including its internally generated
funds, bank borrowing facilities currently being negotiated, and the remaining
net proceeds from the public offering, will be sufficient to finance the
Company's current operations and capital expenditures, excluding acquisitions,
for the next twelve months.
                                           
For the three month period ended September 30, 1997, there has been no impact
from inflation or changing prices on the Company's sales or income from
operations.
